I saw this video on CBS news and I think it is very interesting.

link to video

if you actually watch the video you will understand this:
I think it is a time traveler
seriously though, I think the person is coming from thier dentist.

I SAW THAT!!

I think it's a hearing aide or someone just grabbing their ear though...

yeah I think it could be a hearing aide too. but did they have hearing aides back then?

according to the video they do.

Well, I couldn't tell. To me it looked like someone grabbing their ear though.
